Application Process for National Visa Type D For Long Stay In Germany

You must apply for a National Type D Germany Visit Visa if you are not a citizen of Europe and you need to visit the German Republic for any reason. Any foreign nationals who intend to stay in this country for longer than three months should keep in mind to get a long-stay visa.

Whether you want to come to this nation for business, pleasure, or medical treatment, the immigration authorities will need to give you their permission first. Depending on the Type D Germany Visit Visa, you may also be granted a residence permit after you enter the country. You can also experience short stays in other Schengen nations with this form of visa, with no additional requirements.

What Are The Documents Required For A Long-Stay Visa?

There are a few documents you will need to fill out and submit if you wish to apply for a Germany Visa Type D Work Permit. Let us now take a detailed look at them for a better understanding:

The National Visa Application Form

The first things you will need are two German National Visa application forms depending on your home country. You should fill out the form with precision and provide updated information to ensure the allowance. In addition to these, you should also state the reason for your visit thoroughly so that it is efficient for the authorities to understand. You can also fill out the form in capital letters so that there is no confusion while reading.

Evidence Of Adequate Financial Resources

If you wish to get a Germany-type D visa, you will have to show evidence of appropriate financial resources during your stay in the nation. You will have to prove that you have 853€ per month to the European Commission to get permission to stay.

Comprehensive Plan For Your Trip

You will have to provide the immigration authorities with a thorough itinerary of your visit to make it convenient for them to understand your trip's purpose. You will have to give them details regarding your travel tickets, hotel reservations, etc. This aspect will allow them to figure out your schedule accordingly and provide you with a visa.

Lodging Information

Accommodation details are another piece of document that you will need to submit while applying for a National Visa Type D Germany. If you wish to stay in a hotel, you will have to provide thorough information about your resort appropriately. However, if you plan on residing with your relatives, you will need to provide their identification proofs along with evidence that they can support you during your visit.

Confirmation Letter

If you are applying for a long-stay visa for work-related purposes, you will need to submit a confirmation from your employer to the immigration authorities. However, if you wish to stay in the nation for educational requirements, it is best to provide an enrollment confirmation from the college or university you will be attending.

Evidence Of Legal Citizenship

You will also need to submit evidence of legal citizenship to the immigration authorities while trying to acquire a Germany Type D Visa. Children's birth certificates, marriage certificates, ration cards, spouse's death records, health insurance, etc., are some of the paperwork you can use as proof effortlessly and effectively.

How Should You Apply For A Long-Stay Visa?

If you want to successfully apply for a long-stay visa in Germany, there is a process you will have to follow. The first thing you must pay attention to is getting your hands on the application form with the help of the web and then filling it out appropriately.

Once you have filled it out, you should remember to make an appointment with the embassy since these authorities only accept visa documents through a meeting.

After the appointment is booked, visit the embassy on the date you are given and remember to be on time. The submission process may take around 10 minutes since your documents will be verified by an official, so try to arrange your proofs and applications beforehand.

Once the verification is over, your information will be uploaded into the German online system accordingly. Pay the German visa fee that the authorities will mention if you want to get the receipt for your processed application.

The last step of the Type D Visa Germany application form will be the collection of biometric data, which takes around 7-8 minutes. You must also remember that the processing may take a few weeks to complete.

If you follow the above guidelines accordingly, you will be able to get a long-stay visa without any further delay. Although the processing may take a few weeks or months, you should rest easy knowing that the authorities will reach out to you without any doubt.

You can save Russian queers from genocide

A week ago the Russian Supreme Court made a ruling declaring LGBT community an extremist organization. The precise contents of the ruling, as well as the process, were made secret, so there’s no official information on what is being banned, but if we take into account previous cases of Russia using this tactic (Like with Navalny’s Anti-Corruption Foundation), any kind of support, from saying things on the internet to financial support, or dissemination of information about LGBT is banned. It also basically criminalizes queer people’s existence. The sentences are up to 12 years in prison - harsher than for murder.

This has already led to majority of Russian LGBT organizations dissolving and evacuating or going into crisis mode and cutting offline support. A number of previously friendly endocrinologists have stopped working with trans people for self-preservation, even if they already changed the documents - a situation especially dangerous for trans masculine people, as while trans women can get HRT without a prescription or from gray market, testosterone is a heavily regulated substance. The entire support system is headed for collapse, it’s hard to predict what will happen when prosecutions begin. It’s important to notice that conversion therapy is legal in Russia, and the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs has a database of transpeople who have changed their documents.

In light of this, a German queer organization Quarteera has launched a petition which will have to be considered by German government if it reaches 50 k signatures, regarding easing the asylum process for Russian LGBT people, particularly issuing humanitarian visas and residence permits not just for activists. While everything is in German, anyone from around the world can sign the petition, not only German citizens. The petition is here - http://quarteera.de/petition

Here’s the instruction in English: https://imgur.com/a/Fgi9yIh

Update the petition expired a few days ago so im not sure if you can still vote

I copied the post from r/196 https://www.reddit.com/r/196/s/qcersiwxh1

asking for a friend but do you have any advice for moving from the us to germany? particularly if this friend was transmasc?

I'm sorry it had to come to this, man.

Generally, I recommend your friend keep in mind r/germany, r/LegaladviceGerman, r/germantrans and similar subreddits for help. Here's a new post specifically for USAmericans who want to move here.

You'll need a residence permit, and for that, a work or student visa seems to be the best way to go. The state is salivating for immigrant workers. Despite that, the authorities and bureaucracy WILL be a pain to deal with, so try to have a job or university in the pipeline. It'll make things easier. The post linked above is a good informational baseline.

Also, I recommend moving to areas with a lighter shade of blue on this voter map:

Because I'm afraid that the fascist resurgence is global. Try for cities with more than 100-150k inhabitants and queer/immigrant clubs. As a transmasc person as well, I feel quite safe even though I live in a very dark blue area and have to interact frequently with AfD voters. I'm also very white and don't look "too queer", though.

If you move to Berlin, you'd be able to get around without German. Everywhere else, you will be crippled without at least some knowledge of the language. You'll have to learn it eventually, either way, so try to get a headstart!

For the transmasc part specifically: depending on what stage of transition you're at, also start with queer or trans clubs. They'll tell you about trustworthy therapists and doctors.

(If anyone has anything to add on, please do! Even if it's just another useful reddit link etc)

Good luck, and hang in there! :)

California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a bill Monday aimed at advancing the restitution of Nazi-looted art, as well as personal property stolen during the Holocaust and other eras of political persecution.

The legislation is a response to a court ruling that allowed a work by Camille Pissarro to remain in a Spanish museum instead of returning to the heirs of its original owners. The 1897 painting, called “Rue Saint-Honoré in the Afternoon, Effect of Rain,” belonged to Fritz and Lilly Cassirer, a Jewish couple who sold it under duress to escape the Nazis.

The painting by Pissarro, a French Jewish impressionist, now hangs in the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza in Madrid. The museum has claimed ownership of the work under a “finders keepers” law of property ownership that is unique to Spain.

In January, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals was instructed to decide the case according to California state law. But it ruled that, even according to California, Spain’s legal system took precedence. “Rue Saint-Honoré,” according to that decision, belonged to the museum.

The new California law, signed at Los Angeles’ Holocaust Museum, clarifies that California law should take precedence in local Holocaust art restitution cases. It allows Californians “to bring an action for damages or to recover artwork or personal property, as defined, that was stolen or otherwise lost as the result of political persecution.”

According to the law, “California substantive law shall apply in actions to recover fine art,” and that “the true owner cannot be divested of ownership without actual discovery of their rights in, and the location and possessor of, the artwork.”

The legislation could send the decades-long ownership dispute over the Pisarro painting back to the courts — and award the painting to the Cassirers’ descendants.

“As a Holocaust survivor, the proudest day of my father’s life was in 1947, when he became a U.S. citizen,” David Cassirer, grandson of Fritz and Lilly Cassirer, told the LA Times. “He would be so happy, and grateful, that the people of the state of California have taken action to ensure the return of looted art to its rightful owners.”

Spain is one of the original 44 international signatories of the Washington Principles, a 1998 framework for restituting artwork stolen during the Holocaust. In 2018, Stuart Eizenstadt, the Secretary of State’s special advisor on Holocaust issues, named Spain as one of five countries that fell short on its commitment to the Washington Principles.

Authorities in New York City and around the world have made renewed efforts in recent years to restitute art that was sold under duress due to Nazi persecution. Earlier this year, 21 countries agreed to new standards in art restitution at a conference marking the 25th anniversary of the Washington Principles.

“Restitution is important, not just to get people their property back, but because it is a way to examine the true realities of the Holocaust and keep those facts in the public consciousness,” Sam Dubbin, an attorney representing the Cassirer family, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. “It’s stolen property. It’s the Holocaust, which makes it 1,000 times worse, but it’s still fundamentally stolen property. And no one should be able to keep stolen property.”

The oil painting was bought directly from Camille Pissarro by German Jewish industrialist and art collector Julius Cassirer, who passed it down to his son Fritz and his wife Lilly. Lilly was forced to sell the painting under duress in 1939 for about $360 at the time in order to obtain an exit visa for England. The money was then deposited into a bank account that she was not permitted to access.

The painting made its way around the world over the next several decades, eventually landing in the collection of Baron Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza, a Swiss art collector and the heir to a German steel fortune. Thyssen-Bornemisza sold his collection to the Kingdom of Spain in 1993, which established a foundation and museum in Spain in his name.

The Museo Thyssen did not respond to a request for comment.

After he learned of the location of the Pissarro painting, the couple’s sole heir, Claude Cassirer, sued for its return in 2005. He died five years later, and now his son David, his daughter Ava’s estate and the Jewish Federation of San Diego County are handling the case.

“For survivors of the Holocaust and their families, the fight to take back ownership of art and other personal items stolen by the Nazis continues to traumatize those who have already gone through the unimaginable,” Newsom said Monday. “It is both a moral and legal imperative that these valuable and sentimental pieces be returned to their rightful owners, and I am proud to strengthen California’s laws to help secure justice for families.”

can i ask what resources you used for info on moving to europe? its something im considering and i have been doing research myself, but a lot of good advice was on reddit and im not really sure if reddit is still usable.

well, first i'll say that most of reddit is still usable to me so don't lose hope on that front!

there's not a lot of advice i can give in general, only wrt moving to germany because that's where i'm going specifically so i've been doing So Much reading the past few months from official govt sites more than anything else--tho regardless of what country you want to move to, govt sites with info on immigration are a good starting point.

tldr, more details under the cut:

-you're gonna need housing and health insurance

-you're gonna need to look into visas/residency permits (visas are for entry into the country, if you're from the US or Canada you probably won't need one) and their specific requirements

-ur nearest consulate is going to be a good source of info and point of contact

the first things, imo, that you need to know are:

1 do you need a visa to get in (if so, what kind, what are the requirements, etc)

2 steps for establishing a residency permit once you're there

and getting all your ducks in a row on those fronts (often the visa and residency permit will have the same requirements as each other from what i've noticed, though as a US citizen i haven't paid much attention because i don't require a visa to enter the vast majority of european countries). this is all info that will be available on official websites, including consulate/embassy sites. it may be helpful to start out looking for info on the site of the relevant consulate website, they will often include links to further resources, or just shoot them an email with questions you have if you can't find answers there.

but important questions for these:

-is there a language requirement? for example, in germany, to be able to work you need to be at a B1 level of german on the CEFR scale. C1 is required for university admissions. etc.

--is there a possibility of a language learner's visa/permit if you're not at that level? what are the requirements for that? (again with germany as an example: you will not be allowed to have a job while you have this residency permit and therefore must prove to the govt that you can financially support yourself for a year through a locked bank account with a minimum of around 11k euro in it).

-what additional documentation is required, besides just your passport? how do you acquire it?

--you will probably have to get passport photos taken again after you've moved because (i'm assuming anon is from the US but i'm sure this applies to other countries too) required biometric photo sizes vary by country and you will almost certainly need one for any residency permit or other documentation.

the other important thing will be securing housing, which gets to be a massive fucking pain when you live on the other side of the ocean. doomspiral and i lucked out massively finding a prefurnished place in berlin (which is an especially hard city to find housing in in general). you are just going to have to keep trying to contact places until someone actually responds to you, unfortunately. and, realistically, you're going to have to trust that the listing is actually accurate to what you saw on the website.

also, i know that in both germany and austria, once you've actually moved, you will have to register your address with the local government (like within a matter of days, this is not something you can put off literally at all), so look into if you need to do that and what forms are required if you do (i forget the reqs in austria, but in germany it's your passport and a specific form you and the landlord fill out)

european countries are going to require that you have health insurance. there are companies that cater specifically to immigrants and/or students (if you happen to be doing uni there--look into the student insurance it'll be much cheaper lol). try to familiarize yourself with the way the insurance system works; for example, in germany it's not unheard of for you to have a deductible (this is still going to be Much Cheaper than a deductible from an american company lmao). also in general it doesn't hurt to be aware of things like abortion and birth control access (fun fact! abortion is totally illegal in germany and has been since the 1930s and yes you are doing that math correctly about who put those laws in place).

i highly highly recommend putting together checklists of documents you need for each major thing mentioned here. also learn how to use excel to create budgets because it's a lifesaver lol

can i ask how did you get to move to europe? my girlfriend is from asia and wants to move to europe where i live but i have no idea of how it works. like where does she need to go, how long does it take, do we need to be married etc. it just seems like a lot of work... i know it's different from country to country but i was just wondering i guess

i can tell u my own experience! so it absolutely does depend on the country, some countries in europe are much more difficult to immigrate to than others. i came to germany with a "study preparation" visa, meaning i had to get a conditional acceptance at a german uni under the condition that i either complete some sort of training or language course. in my case, it was for learning german. this gave me 2 whole years to learn the language but i completed learning german within 1 year and got the language certificate. the second year i used to do some internships and apply for universities. after that, i had to accept a uni & pay the fees (in german public unis its maximum like 300 euros per semester, so its affordable compared to unis elsewhere) & bc of the type of visa i had, i extended my residence permit for my studies and after i finish that im hopefully going to do the psychotherapy training whichll be another 3 years meaning id have to extend my residence permit again. in germany peope who studied at a german uni require less time to get citizenship also (given that you already speak german at at least a .. i think B2 level?), so its pretty open to certain forms of immigration legally speaking. theres also a job-seeking visa for ppl in specific situations here i think but im not too familiar with that

on the other hand, some countries are extremely difficult to immigrate to but the easiest/quickest route is probably also to study there anyways which isnt an option for everyone. like switzerland for example is to my knowledge extremely difficult for anyone to actually immigrate to, but im sure there's certain cases where its more possible. so it really depends honestly.

in terms of how long it takes: in germany on avg i think ur supposed to wait like 3-4 months to get a long-term visa to stay in germany legally? but in my case they were probs being racist lol so it ended up taking longer and i had to ask a lawyer to help bc they were discriminating against me.

where do you need to go: im not sure if ur asking for country suggestions, but it depends. if she wants to study somewhere then honestly id recommend germany bc of the affordable education but it totally depends on what shes looking for her and her own criteria.

World History :

In 1938, Hitler accompanied German troops to annex Austria for the “Third Reich".

Most of the Austrians who considered themselves as from German ethnicity welcomed the Nazis.

Following the unification of Austria and Germany there was an outburst of public violence against Austrian Jews. Pro-Nazi supporters would beat up, attack and force religious Jews to perform humiliating exercises. Amid discrimination and violence half of the Austrian Jews population started leaving the country. Many of them started seeking refugees in neighboring countries including Switzerland.

But Swiss government made a clear-cut decision.

They didn't want these refugees.

At the Swiss-Austrian border they assigned Swiss Border Police. An official dispatch in Sept 1938, commanded Swiss police to turn back refugees.

At that time Paul Grüninger was the commander of border police at the Canton of St. Gallen that borders with ermany and Austria.

Initially he resisted Jews people who were trying to illegally enter his country. But as the number grew from ten to hundreds and then to thousands he only saw pain, angst and horror in their eyes.

He stopped following the instructions. He decided to do what he simply believed to be the right thing to do.

He falsified the refugee's visas, allowing entry of them in Switzerland.

The manipulations of dates enabled the newly arrived Jewish refugees to be treated as legals, and they had to be taken to Diepoldsau camp. There, aided by the Jewish organizations the refugees awaited their permits for temporary stay in Switzerland or the departure to a final destination.

Not only did Paul help in the entry but he took personal interest for their well-being. Grüninger and his family paid their own money to buy winter clothes and shoes for children and they paid for a young girl's visit to a dentist.

Survivors who knew Grüninger, said that he was like " a father and a friend, a man in whose company you didn't have to tremble."

But the job was becoming risky because he was by then under investigation. Grüninger didn't care. He continued his work.

" I'd rather break the rules than send these poor, miserable people back to Germany", he later said.

For months, Grüninger worked tirelessly and managed to save more than 3600 Jews until April 3, 1939. That day when he went to work, authorities dismissed him without prior notice and pension. He realized that he has been found out.

In March 1941, the court found him guilty of fraud and branded him as a criminal. Later this became an obstacle to finding a permanent job. In those years of difficulty his wife and daughter stood with him.

Ruth Roduner, who was studying in Lausanne had to stop her studies to help her father. Getting a job was not easy for her either because she was a ' criminal's daughter '.

After all those years of difficulty when Grüninger was asked what he would do if he were in the same condition again, he replied "with the same situation again, I wouldn't have acted any differently".

Because for him it was a matter of saving people whose lives were under threat. He said, "in such circumstances, how could I have concerned myself with mere bureaucracy and numbers?"

He died in poverty in 1972, nearly forgotten in Switzerland.

After 23 years of his death, in 1995, his case trial was reopened and Grüninger was exonerated. And in 1998, his heirs received 1.3 million francs 'in reputation for moral damages'.
